The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua have now turned their focus to the Chiefs this weekend and will be looking to secure their first away win since 2022 when the two teams meet in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific round 4 this weekend.

After their emphatic 20-10 win over defending champions the Crusaders last week in Lautoka, coach Mick Byrne says they will keep building on what they are doing.

Byrne says they will have some tactical areas they will look into when they play against the Chiefs.

He says their main priority is to focus on their game, continue to carry the ball well, look after the ball around the contact area and recycle it well.

The Drua will also be looking to secure back-to-back wins this weekend.

The Drua will play the Chiefs at 6.30pm this Saturday in Waikato.

In other matches this weekend, the Crusaders will host the Hurricanes at 6.06pm Friday, the Rebels will play the Reds at 8.35pm Friday, Western Force will take on Moana Pasifika at 11pm Friday, the Highlanders will host the Brumbies at 3.35pm Saturday and the Waratahs will play the Blues 8.35pm Saturday.
